This section describes how to set up and wire the TR5164 module.

2.1 Unpack the TR5164

Check that the following parts are in the package:
• TR5164 PCB
• TR5164 plastic cabinet
2.2 Choose a Mounting Location for the TR5164
NOTE: Permanently mount the TR5164 receiver and wireless devices after placement testing
each device (Section 2.4, page 5; Section 5.1, page 11).
Find a place that is:
• Dry
• Within operating temperature range
• Central to the proposed placement of all wireless devices
• As high as possible. The range of the module is reduced if mounted below ground level.
• Far from sources of interference, including: electrical noise (computers, televisions, electric
motors, appliances, heating and air conditioning units), large metal objects like heating ducts and
plumbing which may shield the electro-magnetic waves
• Smooth and free of obstructions that block access to the rear of the unit

2.3 Connect the TR5164 Receiver

CAUTION: Remove all power (AC, DC, telephone lines)
from the system while connecting modules to the Keybus.
Connect the TR5164 to the four-wire Keybus of the
control panel according to Figure 1.
Once the wiring is complete, reconnect power to the
security system.
Next, enroll and program the wireless devices. See
Section 3.1, page 6 for instructions.

2.4 Receiver Placement Test

The TR5164 performs best in locations where RF interference is minimal. To find the best mounting
location, perform the following placement test:
1. Apply power to the TR5164 and hold it in the intended mounting location.
2. If the yellow Trouble LED is on, interference levels are high and a new mounting location should
be found. If the LED is flashing or off, interference is low and the location is good.
